All these supplies with NULL devices are bogus, supplies are in terms of
the device being supplied not the labels on the board.  If you've got a
supply with no device and the name of the supply on either the regulator
or the board you're most likely doing it wrong.  The only exception is
for supplies used in cpufreq since we don't have a struct device we can
use there.

I'm not convinced that these #defines help anything, they're used in
exactly one place so don't add much to either legibility or ease of
maintinance.
